Great for cutting at home

Before I decided on this pair I spent a lot of time reading and researching scissors and scissor metals. This is the cheapest pair of scissors from a company that makes professional quality scissors. The main difference between these scissors and scissors made from more expensive metals is how often they need to be sharpened and their overall lifespan. Scissors made of relatively soft metal need to be sharpened every 50-100 haircuts. Scissors made from Hitachi steel (high quality 440c) can last up to 25 times longer before needing sharpening. Scissors can only be sharpened 4-5 times before they need to be replaced. If you are a professional barber doing 10 cuts a day, the difference is whether you need to send scissors to be sharpened every few weeks and every year, or need to replace every 2 months or a few years. However, if you just do a haircut at home, a softer steel will do. I believe these shears will last my family about 2 years before they even need to be sharpened for the first time. I have a Tri-Angle Sharpmaker that easily sharpens these inexpensive scissors to shockingly sharp edges at home. High quality/harder steel scissors are much more difficult to sharpen and may need to be sent to a professional for best results. longer). The reality in my family is that long before they wear out with proper use, they're likely to be dropped or (despite my precautions) loaned out for something that will ruin them. So I'm sticking with the $20 scissors, and unless you're a pro, you probably should be, too. They will work just like much more expensive scissors and when my son borrows them to trim his tie <grimaces> I don't want to cry.

Pros
  • Easy to use
